Give me a fin
Lending a fin to fans of fish
About the Site
Give Me a Fin is a website by lovers of fish for other lovers of fish. It is our desire to ‘give a fin’ to fishkeepers new and old. We’d love to help the next generation of fish-obsessed hobbyists avoid the pitfalls and mistakes that we’ve suffered through.
On this website, you will find 4 main categories: Fishkeeping 411, fish profiles, plant profiles, and breeding fish 101.
Fishkeeping 411
In this category you will find all the basic information that you need to start your first aquarium. Whether you’re a first owner of our scaly friends, or just want to recap on some vital information, this is the place to start.
Fish Profiles
In this category you will find detailed reports of various species. They are sorted in three different ways: by temperament, by water level, and by family so you can easily find what you need.
Plant Profiles
The plant profiles category can help you find the perfect floating plant to make your surface-dwelling fish feel secure, or one to fill that straggly decoration that needs some green!
Breeding Fish 101
Want to take the next step, and make your five fishy friends become 50, then this section will teach you how to do it!
